Yeah looks that way doesn’t it =/
give me the greaser!!
You grease monkey
My favorite Gun is the BAR. I wish it was legal to own in california. BUT my favorite gun I own is this M1 Carbine. Dated 1-43 and all original
How much did that set you back?
thats a beautiful assault rifle you’ve got there man
I don’t think that was an assault rifle was it? The first one in that day and age was the STG44 I think.
Here is another close up pic. I bought it at a gun show in 1989 from an old man in palm Springs California, I paid $200.
TWO HUNDRED? :shock: You lucky devil you :o
Of course it’s not - that was a joke referring back to previous topics & Ironpan’s rather twisted views on these things…
Oh…
It is a good looking weapon though I agree, how much of it is still original? or is it reproduction in part?
This carbine is 100% original. For whatever reason it was not issued.
ahhh yes, the m1 carbine.

Yeah, the BAR is a pretty cool rifle, it had pretty decent use in the US Army as well.
My personal favorite is the M1 Garand. I just picked up one from a guy getting out of the gun collecting thing. It is no where near original (pieces and parts from the armories before it went surplus). It is one of the smoothest semi-auto’s I have shot(granted I haven’t shot many), and is still accurate considering the barrel looks like a sewer pipe on the inside. My only complaint is that mine suffers from what some people call the 8th round jam. I often doesn’t carry the 8th round into the chamber on its own sometimes.
I had to a vote in for the Grease Gun. At roughly $20 dollars per they were able to be mass produced and their compact size made them invaluable in close quarters combat such as towns and hamlets. Their max effective range left a bit to be desired at approximately 100 yrds but then again they were a close quarters weapon. When I discharged from the Army in 1998 my unit still had three grease guns in use. I loved the things.
My favorite weapon is the Colt M1911, how many times was in service
in the US Army? And when its was retired, some of the officers still have it as your sidearm :arrow:
Nobody likes the .30 machine gun.
